The Soundcraft Vi2000 Digital Mixing System provides live sound engineers, touring productions, and A/V installations with a comprehensive mixing solution featuring three touchscreens, 28 faders, 24 busses, advanced SpiderCore processing, and multiple effect options. A host of powerful features including Faderglow, VM2 microphone monitoring, and Vistonics provide an intuitive and user-friendly mixing experience, while the 40-bit floating-point DSP environment, running STUDER, BSS, Lexicon, and dbx algorithms ensure outstanding sound quality for your events.
The console includes vMIX automatic microphone mixing alongside the acclaimed BSS DPR901ii Dynamic EQ and Lexicon multi-effects along with the ability to insert any external device. The console offers a maximum of 246 inputs and 246 outputs. Up to 48 mic line inputs and 16 line outputs are available using combinations of 16-channel XLR modules in 4 rear-mounted slots. Connect up to two MADI-based Stageboxes to the two 64ch expansion slots or alternatively use them to access the extensive range of D21m IO option cards, addressing all industry-standard audio formats. The total I/O count of the console is 246 inputs and 246 outputs.
A built-in 64 x 64 Dante interface allows the Vi2000 to integrate into an existing Dante network and provides direct recording/playback connection via Ethernet to any PC or Mac-based recording software. The Dante interface is complemented by an additional optical MADI interface designed for either record feeds or connection of the Soundcraft Realtime Rack Plug-In engine, adding the power of Universal Audio UAD-powered plug-ins to its capabilities.
Mixing Control Surface with Triple Touchscreen Interfaces
The Soundcraft Vi2000 features an efficiently designed control surface, 28 faders, 24 mono/stereo busses, and a sweeping black screen panel with three Vistonics II touchscreen interfaces with sleek, updated 3D graphics. Because the Vi2000 has three touchscreens, it can be used by two engineers at the same time. The console offers an array of settings and libraries, copy/paste functions, sophisticated automation, and radio mic status monitoring, FaderGlow, along with processing from dbx, BSS, Lexicon, and Universal Audio (Optional Realtime Rack).
SpiderCore DSP
Sound quality is assured by Soundcraft SpiderCore, a 40-bit floating point DSP engine that mixes FPGA and DSP technology in a unique combination that maximizes I/O routing and DSP mixing capability in a footprint small enough for inclusion within a control surface.
FX
Internal FX come courtesy of 4 independent stereo Lexicon multi-effects units, each providing a choice of 14 reverbs, 7 delays, and 8 pitch shifting effects, patchable to input channels, aux outputs, and channel inserts. BSS third-octave Graphic EQ is available on every bus output, with fader bays illuminating in red to indicate GEQ mode.
...And More FX
The Vi2000 can also accommodate the new Soundcraft Realtime Rack, a hardware/software unit designed in collaboration with plug-in manufacturer Universal Audio that provides access to 74 industry-standard UAD plug-ins.
Dante as Standard
As with its bigger brother the Vi3000, Vi2000 incorporates a Dante interface as standard, for seamless digital audio networking with Dante-enabled devices.
Connectivity
In addition to a full complement of analog and digital inputs and outputs, the console provides MIDI, USB, Ethernet, DVI out, Dante/MADI record feed outputs, redundant power supply, and other connections. The Vi2000 has two expansion bays that can be fitted with MADI Stagebox cards to connect multiple Soundcraft Stagebox input expander modules.
Shine a Light
Along with its greatly expanded functionality, the Vi2000 retains all the features that have made the Soundcraft Vi Series the consoles of choice for live sound engineers worldwide, such as FaderGlow illuminated faders that display different colors according to function, the ability to store and recall snapshots and cues, and compatibility with Soundcraft s ViSi app that allows remote control from an iPad.
Optional 64-Channel Stagebox
With 48 onboard mic inputs, Vi2000 is happy to work with existing analog multicore systems. Also available is an optional remote stagebox housing 64 analogue mic/line inputs and 32 analogue line outputs, with 48V phantom power and a 80 Hz HPF before the A-D converters. Mic amp gain can be controlled remotely from the console surface.
